In an unprecedented move, an FIR will be filed against a sitting High Court judge. This, after the Chief Justice of India (CJI) Ranjan Gogoi permitted the CBI to file a corruption case against sitting Allahabad High Court judge, Justice SN Shukla.

Justice Shukla is accused of granting favours to a private medical college in the infamous medical examination scam case. He allegedly made handwritten changes in his own bench’s order to allow a private medical college to extend the deadline for admission of students.
